Gemini refuses to recognize a Google Home automation, but only in Android Auto
magnumforce2006 · reddit · 2026-10-03
A user reports that a Google Home automation built as a Macrodroid trigger works fine when invoked via Gemini on the phone, but Gemini in Android Auto acts as if the automation doesn't exist—even with the exact same prompt and precise phrasing like "Run the Google Home automation called Magnum force Love." Since driving is the main use case, the bug is painful, and others report similar Gemini/Android Auto issues; no consistent fix found yet.
